Title: What to do now..?
Post by: lovatic on October 29, 2013, 04:56:47 pm: I am feeling super tired right now and I am in no condition to be writing any practice essays but I don't want to just sleep or do absolutely nothing for the next few hours considering the English exam is tomorrow :-\
Should I just read summary notes etc?

Good luck for tomorrow!!

Study for a bit longer everyone, and then just chillax. :P

I've stopped studying for the Exam just before. :)

Just going over your notes and major areas of your texts; checking any high-quality past essays you've written for ideas, and identifying symbolism, themes, tones etc. in the texts.
